The return of Christine O’Donnell?

O’Donnell is taking care of her family and will make a decision later about possibly running against Coons again in 2014, Abby Livingston reports in the Farm Team column, Roll Call’s weekly state-by-state look at up-and-coming candidates.

“Would O’Donnell, who became the bane of national Republicans that cycle, run again? Her former campaign manager, Matthew Moran, said it’s a possibility.

“We hear from Christine’s supporters everyday that they want her to run again,” he wrote in an email to CQ Roll Call. “However, both of her parents faced serious illness this past year so she won’t be making a decision about 2014 until they are in the clear.””

Blowback

There is really nothing to this story. Her former campaign manager said that it’s a possibility. So what? Her campaign would be DOA. She may have been able to get past her baggage in 2010 if she was a good campaigner, but as we all saw, she was horrible. Which really says a lot about how horrible Castle’s campaign was.

I’m no O’Donnell expert, so I’m not aware of any lying, cheating, or lawbreaking.

She made some silly mistakes, but she’s young.

No, she’s a deadbeat. Since she left college, she never had a real job. She ran for office a few times and tried to leech a living out of donors in the swamp of low level advocacy groups that are attached to the Republican Party.
